Midi Foot Controller for PodXT

Im looking for a good midi foot controller for my PodXT. Any suggestions? The Digitech C8 or ControlX would be a nice choice?

I want to avoid the Line6 controllers, apparently they are not that good and need at least 5 banks and a volume|wah pedal.

I use the Behringer FCB1010 with my POD Pro, and it works great. Its at the bottom of this pic. It works well and does what its meant to do

i have the behringer and it's awesome. I've seen it in a LOT of MIDI rigs. It's almost a standard. I'd say. Well built too,which is kind of rare for behringer.

Alot of pros use the rocktron switcher too, so that says a bit about the quality/durability. But behringer switches seem to run a little lighter on the wallet.

Hasn't line6 got a "shortboard" for their pod XT with both volume wah and at least 5 banks?

i use an engl z12 and i love it. but it doesnt have onboard expression.

the behringer is great as far as what it can do for the price... it's not the best built controler. but that's behringer and i've seen worse quality.
